Guild Wars 2

In WvW I was using unload on a veteran guard and noticed none of the shots reached the veteran scout right next to him. I was in front of the guard with the scout to his right so it seemed like the shots wouldn’t bounce perpendicularly. Also, it seems like overall the shots bounce less often even with targets lined up back to back.

Has anyone else noticed a difference after the patch?

This happens when they “fix” something that is not broken. The new algorithm to calculate for the new distance might bugged this trait.

Better post this in the bug forum, but only after extensively testing it in different places.

Very odd. I am noticing MORE ricochets for sure and not less. I was getting them even off boiling oil pots wherein they were hitting people I could not see hidden up on the walls.

This was last night before “new build” so maybe something changed.

A question. I wonder if this has to do with how close you are to the target? As in if you are standing right close do you get less ricochets compared to when you at a greater distance. I might not have tested long enough but this SEEMED to be the case on practice dummies.

I will test more later.
